Does soap carry a charge?
Yes soap solution or any solution can be made to conduct electricity. But, when the solution is made of distilled water then electric conductivity is less compared to ordinary water. The conductivity of a solution depends on the purity of the water as electrical conductivity depends on the availability of positive and negative ions in a solution, and ordinary water contains a lot of salts i.e. NaCl which can split into NA+, Cl- ions, these ions can conduct electricity in water. But in distilled water, depending on the purity of the salts in the solution, electrical conductivity increases or decreases.
Would a solution of glucose contain electrolytes?
Not if the solution contained only glucose and water.
What is a real world example of solution conductivity?
A PH meter measures conductivity to tell the amount of Hydrogen in a solution. A conductivity meter is used to measure the purity of water in ohms. A battery is a great example of solution conductivity at work.
If there is a 10 glucose solution on one side of a semipermeable membrane and 5 salt solution on the other side what will most likely happen to the flow of water?
Water will diffuse from solution B to solution A
Why would someone test electrical conductivity with a solution containing both methanol and water?
because distilled water does not conduct electricity and tap water does and also to see weather methanol conducts electricity.

Why glucose solution cannot conduct electricity?
Glucose does not dissociate into charged ions in water solution, and the only water solutions with high conductivity are those with substantial concentrations of charged ions, such as the solutions of most salts, acids, and bases.
Would a solution of glucose contain electrolytes?
Not if the solution contained only glucose and water.
In a solution of glucose in water what is glucose?
Glucose is the solute; water is the solvent.
When a soluble metallic salt is added to water its electrical conductivity decreases?
No. Its electrical conductivity increases because the positive and negative ions of the salt dissociate in the water.
How does the elctrical conductivity of ionic compounds change when theey are melted or dissolved in water Why is this so?
Electrical conductivity rises dramatically, and this is due to mobile ions that move in solution or the molten salt under the influence of an electrical field. These mobile ions carry the current.

Why would the bath water have electrical conductivity?
Pure water has extremely low conductivity but any dissolved salts in the water increase its conductivity. Sea water with 3% salt has a high conductivity of 5 S/m.
How do you know explain the electrical conductivity of sodium chloride only as melt and in water solution but not in solid phase?
Sodium chloride in liquid phase and sodium chloride in water solution are electrolytes, containing ions Na+ and Cl-.
What happens when conductivity rises in water?
Water conductivityPure water is not a good conductor of electricity. Ordinary distilled water in equilibrium with carbon dioxide of the air has a conductivity of about 10 x 10-6 W-1*m-1 (20 dS/m). Because the electrical current is transported by the ions in solution, the conductivity increases as the concentration of ions increases.Thus conductivity increases as water dissolved ionic species.
If there is a 10 glucose solution on one side of a semipermeable membrane and 5 salt solution on the other side what will most likely happen to the flow of water?
Water will diffuse from solution B to solution A
How do you test for distilled water?
We need to measure the electrical conductivity.
